*Does not sees death as more than a biological event. Death is not important for man is nothing more than a “being generically determined.”
And this is the way of all atheists.
MARXISM ONDEATH
*Death is the end of life and the beginning of the next.
*The Church calls death a “mystery.” It recognizes man’s natural reluctant to die and the pain of separation of body and soul.
*The Church teaches that God created man with his end in view: eternal life with Him. And this is possible because of Christ’s sacrifice on calvary.
CHIRSTIANITY ON DEATH
*Faces death squarely.
*Death is one of life’s boundary situations, thus, inevitable and, thus, the authentic attitude is to accept it and to find out its significance.
EXISTENTIALISM ONDEATH
*According to Geffre, death is a necessity and liberty. It is also a release from pain and suffering.
*As liberty, Geffre says there is the final option theory that is a very plausible explanation.
DEATH AS NECESSITY AND AS LIBERTY
DEATH IS EITHER
1.) DREAMLESS SLEEP
2.) PASSAGE TO ANOTHER LIFE
THEREFORE, DEATH IS NOTHING TO FEAR
SOCRATESONDEATH
*This is an affirmation once again of the great moment of death. Once you cross its threshold, there is no turning back. You step into unending suffering or eternal peace and love.

DIVINECOMMAND- WHAT DOES GOD ORDAIN US TO DO? IN THIS FRAMEWORK, A STRONG SENSE OF INDIVIDUALISM DOES NOT EXIST. THE ACTIONS AND MORAL REASONING OF ST. THERESA OF CALCUTTA AND ST. LORENZO RUIZ ARE EXEMPLARS OF THIS THEORY
CONSEQUENTIALISM OR UTILITARINISM- KNOWN AS THE GREATER GOOD. IF KILLING A COW WILL SAVE SEVEN CHILDREN THEREFORE KILLING A COW IS MORAL.

VIRTUE ETHICS- THE MORAL DEVELOPMENT OF A PERSON BECAUSE BEING GOOD TO OTHERS IS FULFILLING WITHOUT CONSIDERING DIFFERENT FACTORS
RELATIVISM- WHAT MY CULTURE OR SOCIETY THINK I OUGHT TO DO?
